Mirasol Resources Ltd.
Mirasol Resources Ltd. is a project-generator exploring for high-grade gold, silver and copper deposits in Chile and Argentina. Following a November 2025 definitive agreement to sell its former flagship Virginia Silver Project and Argentine landholdings (Santa Cruz Province) for US$8M plus a 2% NSR royalty, the company's current flagship is the 100%-owned, self-funded Sobek Copper-Gold Project (~11,120 hectares) in Chile's Vicuna District -- a porphyry Cu / high-sulfidation-epithermal Au target with active drilling at the VN Zone and El Potro Prospect. The company also holds the Inca gold project in Chile. No NI 43-101 resource estimate has been published for Sobek.

Lifecycle Milestones
Jurisdiction (40%)7/10
Northern Chile (Vicuna District) -- an established, relatively low-risk Latin American mining jurisdiction, though not Tier-1 on par with Canada/Australia/US.
Infrastructure (40%)No verified figure
Researched with nothing found: no source we could cite confirms or rules out an existing mill, road access, grid power, or tailings facility at Sobek Copper-Gold Project, Vicuna District, Chile (checked Sep 26, 2026; recheck due Mar 25, 2027). Counts at a neutral 5/10 until one does.
Nearby producing mine (20%)Not yet researched
No project coordinates on file yet, so distance to a producing mine can't be measured.
Acquisition Susceptibility
A relative ranking of how closely this company matches the profile of juniors that have actually been acquired — not a probability, and not a reason to buy. Acquisitions are rare: only a few dozen significant deals happen a year across a universe of thousands of juniors, so even a high score here describes a long shot. The strongest signal in the research, a producer that already owns part of the company, is scored from its disclosed strategic shareholders. A producer that is a joint-venture or earn-in partner on the project, rather than a shareholder, isn't captured yet.
How this score is built
- Disclosed pending dealSub-score: Not scored
No pending acquisition or merger disclosed (checked)
Not scored: having no deal in flight isn't held against a company.
Weight 26.25% - Producer's strategic stakeSub-score: Not scored
No producer holds a disclosed stake on file (holder register researched) See holders
Not scored: most juniors that do get bought had no prior toehold, so a missing stake says little either way.
Weight 25% - Distance to a producing mineSub-score: Not yet researched
Distance not yet researched: no project coordinates on file
Distance can't be measured without coordinates, so excluded rather than counted as far.
Weight 22.5% - Lifecycle stageSub-score:1/10

Your Rankings
Mirasol Resources Ltd. generates and stakes exploration projects, then brings in joint-venture partners to fund the drilling in exchange for Mirasol retaining a carried interest, royalty, or reduced equity stake — spreading exposure across multiple projects while avoiding the shareholder dilution a self-funded drill program requires. The projects below are the company's own designated material/flagship JVs; only figures the company has actually disclosed are shown, nothing here is estimated.
| Project | Commodity | JV Partner | Retained | Committed Spend | Spend Active | Stage |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
Sobek Copper-Gold-Silver Project (incl. Rosita) Chile Mirasol's 100%-owned, self-funded and self-operated flagship: a porphyry copper / high-sulfidation-epithermal gold-silver target (~11,120ha) in the Vicuna District, northern Chile, doubled in size via a Feb 2024 option agreement under which Mirasol itself (not a partner) is earning an 80% interest in SQM's adjacent Rosita property by spending US$4M on exploration plus US$3M in option-fee payments over 6 years, subject to a 2% NSR back to SQM. Active drilling continued through 2026 (46 South target, VN Zone, El Potro Prospect); a Jun 22, 2026 update described a modest structurally-controlled hydrothermal system at 46 South and a company pivot toward higher-confidence targets. This self-funded advancement is the defining trait making Mirasol a hybrid rather than a pure prospect generator. | Copper | No JV yet | 100% project interest | — | Active | Grassroots Exploration |

Insiders, Investors & Smart Money
Notable shareholders and insiders whose involvement is worth knowing about, plus what we're seeing from institutional/large-investor activity.
Sprott Asset Management LP, the well-known resource-sector specialist manager, holds a discretionary 9.7% stake -- a materially more significant signal than the small rules-based silver-sector ETF position also on the register (itself index-inclusion mechanics, not a manager's decision). A 10%-holder has been buying steadily and repeatedly on the open market through August 2026.
